Norman Gustavson

I started out in graduate school in cultural anthropology.  After spending a year on a native american reservation I became very interested in learning how to support people and help them address social and psychological problems.  I moved into clinical psychology and have made my career in that field.  I worked for several years on HIV/AIDS prevention, had a private practice for a number of years in Seattle, WA and have worked and lived in Afghanistan for the last eight years.  For the last two years I have been very involved training staff in women's shelters across the country and am just starting a project focused on women in internal refugee camps.  I feel lucky to have found MHIN and Sangath and look forward to learning and collaboration.
